From The Gonzo Consortium:
Bombora is a powerful, elegant, and comprehensive ocean-forecasting app - built specially for surfers, sailors, fishermen, beach walkers, kayakers, and everyone else that loves the water Bombora fetches an awe-inspiring amount of data to help keep you as informed as possible.

Browse buoys, C-MAN, and tidal stations by bodies of water / region, add them easily to a 'Favorites' page, or use the ultra-convenient Nearby function to check the surf at stations closest to you. Use historical charts to observe and predict trends for any number of measurements - is the swell building or fading? Watch the wave energy shift on your phone and you'll be ready at a moment's notice!

Whether your passion is surfing, sailing, fishing, kayaking, windsurfing, kiteboarding, boating or canoeing, we tried to include everything youd ever want to know about ocean conditions... in a package that's hard to beat!

PRAISE FOR BOMBORA "Before this app came out, I had three tide apps, the Surfline app, and a buoy app. Most of the time to check secret spots, I'd have to spend a while on the Internet on various NOAA sites and forecast sites to check the specific conditions in order for it to work. This app makes it a lot easier to figure out if I should drive the three hours to get some waves or not."

"This app is an absolute MUST HAVE for anyone who surfs, body-boards, kayaks, etc, or just walks on the beach.. Seriously, the amount of information you can get by just touching a button is ASTOUNDING. Honestly, a one-time fee for a lifetime of info--what could possibly hold you back?! I am not a surfer, but Bombora is the first thing I check before choosing the best beach nearest me to walk my dog. A must have, for sure, for any beach-goer, anywhere on this planet."
